Do you think it is possible to practice yoga if you are obese? I've always wanted to do yoga, but I'm afraid my weight is going to make the moves impossible, and that people are going to make fun of me in class. :C It seems like whenever I see people that do yoga, they are all thin- or, at the absolute most, average. I'm sorry about asking so many questions! Thank you! <3

ppl of any shape and size are welcome in yoga regardless of athletic ability!! it’s far more about your own practice & pace rather than whether or not you’re capable of doing all of the poses; i’ve seen people of all body types and skill levels in class with me and there’s never been any judgment as far as i’ve witnessed, although i totally get having trepidation about it <3 if u want you can check out the work of jessamyn stanley who’s a plus-sized (and queer!!) yoga instructor. she talks a lot about body positivity in yoga and may be a good resource for u!! she is also here on tumblr.

What tips would you have for someone just getting into yoga?

:’) i’m not an expert by any means but here’s what i’d say based on my own experience!1) i’d suggest even when you’re not in practices to try to stretch all that you can, just because it’ll be easier on your body. yoga can be kinda straining if you’re just starting (even getting back into the saddle after a few months) just because it exercises muscles you didn’t know you had.2) if stretches don’t feel comfortable to you, try to modify them so they’re more doable for your body. i’ve pulled many a muscle trying to keep up with people in the practice or to prove that i could do it, but this is not ideal!!3) i also feel like self-consciousness is a big thing when starting out, just because you feel like all eyes are on you when you mess up, but yoga’s great for both self- and communal acceptance, plus most ppl are focused on their own practice. so don’t be afraid to take things at your own pace.4) yoga is exercise for the body as well as the mind, so practicing meditation in your free time is really good just for your general health (like quelling anxiety) and having a more fulfilling practice.namaste!! <3

dbfjsdfkjfjkf poor enzo looks so SHOOK

tbh he’s furious that we found one of his secretive places because he likes to maintain an air of enigma and aloofness, and sadistically enjoys watching as we scour the whole house for him when we think he’s gone missing. anyway we cleared out the towels from the drawer so he won’t camp out there anymore and he’s very Irritated
